English: I took this picture in 2008 when I went on a tour of the Scandinavian Peninsula in the lower grades. Here is the moose. Itself paracobitis the elk is a mammal, largest kind of deer family. In the picture we can see the characteristic features and peculiarities of this animal: short trunk and neck; high withers (the hump);greatly elongated legs; large head, hook-nosed, with overhanging fleshy upper lip; the soft leathery outgrowth ("earring") under the throat; brownish-black coarse wool; light gray, almost white legs... But where are the luxurious elk antlers, which is why it is often called shochetim? Need to know what the horns are the males, and on my photos depict females. Actually moose in the wild can live singly or in small groups. But in captivity (as in the picture), naturally, they are forced to exist in large groups in a small area, sharing a territory and food and warmth. Despite the inconvenience moose have adapted to the conditions of the enclosure, they co-exist peacefully. Sometimes we should learn from wildlife, to contact her for advice...
